Jangling Jack |
| Jangling Jack |
| Goes Yackety Yack |
| Visits the home of the brave |
| Hails a fat yellow cab |
| Jack wanna celebrate |
| Jack wanna big drink |
| Driver drops him at a bar |
| Called the Rinky Dink |
| Jack pushes through the door |
| And crosses the floor |
| Tips his hat to a man |
| Grinning in the corner |
| Going Do da do Do da do |
| Says, I’m Jangling Jack |
| I go Do da do |
| I wanna Rinky Dink Special |
| I wanna little umbrella too |
| Jack flops on his stool |
| Sees the grinning man laugh |
| So Jack laughs back |
| Jack raises his glass |
| Says, God bless this country |
| And everything in it The losers and the winners |
| The good guys and the sinners |
| The grinning man says, Buddy |
| It’s all Yackety Yack |
| Whips out a little black pistol |
| Shoots a bullet in Jack |
| Jangling Jack Do Da Do Do Da Do |
| Jangling Jack |
| How do you Do Da Do |
| Jangling Jack Flies off his seat |
| Crashes through the door |
| Lands in a heap on the street |
| Hears his mother’s voice |
| Going, Do do do |
| Jack is shouting |
| Mummy is that you? |
| He sees the berserk city |
| Sees the dead stacked in piles |
| Sees the screaming crowd |
| Screams, Where am I? |
| Going Do da do Going Do da do |
| Well Jangling Jack |
| As a matter of fact |
| Crawls through the crowd |
| Back into the bar |
| Jack crawls to his stool |
| Jack drags himself up Falls back down on his arse |
| In a puddle of blood |
| Going Goodbye Mummy |
| Goodbye Goodbye |
| Jack doubles over |
| And he vomits and dies |
| Going Do do do Going Do do do |
